What does “working together” mean?
It means when you have UPMC for Life, we work with your doctors and other health care providers to help you get the care you need.
Why is this important?
Care and insurance go hand in hand. To get the best possible care, you need access to high-quality insurance. When your doctors and insurance work together, everyone is on the same page about what is best for your health. This allows you to get the right care in the right place, at the right time. It also helps prevent unnecessary tests and procedures, which can improve your experience and reduce the cost of your care.
How does it work?
Both your doctors and your insurance have the same goal: to keep you as healthy as possible. When we share this goal and have access to the same information about your health, you get better health care.
Think of it as a team where everyone is focused on your health care:
- Primary care physicians
- Specialists
- Hospitals
- UPMC for Life (insurance company)
We are a team, and your health is at the center of everything we do.
